Robotics Engineer Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a robotics engineer in New York?
Most robotics engineer roles in New York require at least a bachelor's degree in robotics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, or computer science, with a master's degree preferred at many research-focused employers. New York does not require a state-issued robotics license, but engineers who take on design work affecting public safety may need to work under a New York State licensed Professional Engineer. Building a portfolio of automation or ROS-based projects and completing internships at New York manufacturers or research institutions strengthens candidacy significantly.
How much do robotics engineers make in New York?
Robotics engineers in New York earn a median of about $102,440 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $74,990 for the lowest 10% to over $160,220 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire robotics engineers in New York?
Employers hiring robotics engineers in New York right now include mecka, ALSTOM, and aescape, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. New York's defense contractors, medical device manufacturers, and autonomous vehicle research labs are among the most consistent sources of robotics engineering openings in the state.
Which New York cities have the most robotics engineer jobs?
New York, Hornell, and Niskayuna have the most robotics engineer openings in New York. New York City leads because of its concentration of tech companies, research hospitals, and defense contractors, while Buffalo and Rochester contribute strongly through advanced manufacturing, optics, and aerospace industries that have historically anchored engineering employment in western New York.
Are there remote robotics engineer jobs in New York?
Yes, but they're rare. Robotics engineering is fundamentally a hands-on discipline, requiring direct work with hardware, lab environments, and physical systems. About 50% of robotics engineer openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, and those tend to involve software-heavy responsibilities such as simulation, path planning algorithm development, or robot operating system integration rather than physical assembly or testing.
How can I get hired as a robotics engineer in New York with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a co-op or internship at a New York manufacturer or research institution, which many candidates convert to full-time offers. Employers like Lockheed Martin and larger Rochester-area defense contractors run structured new-graduate programs for engineering roles. Adjacent positions such as automation technician, test engineer, or mechatronics technician at mid-size New York manufacturers are common stepping stones. A strong project portfolio demonstrating ROS, computer vision, or embedded systems work gives candidates without industry experience a concrete edge in interviews.
Where can I find and apply to robotics engineer jobs in New York?
You can find and apply to robotics engineer jobs in New York on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across the state. Find roles that fit your experience and location and apply directly.
